If X and Y are independent exponential random variables with respective means 1/2, and 1/2, then (a)
Question:
If X and Y are independent exponential random variables with respective means 1/2, and 1/2, then
(a) use the lack of memory property of the exponential to intuitively explain why Z min(X, Y) is exponential.
(b) what is the conditional distribution of Z given that Z = X?
(c) give a heuristic argument that the conditional distribution of Y-Z, given that ZX, is exponential with mean 1/22.
